  1. Unless he does something very drastic like go vegan I don't see it happening. When you get to 40 you have to make substantial changes to do what he is saying. He already doesn't drink, I presume, so unless he's just pigging out on fast food and junk food it will take something like that.... to lose weight at this point you need diet and exercise. Not just one or the other and I assume he's getting a decent dose of both. I suspect during the off season he's a good boy because it's training time. You can control your day. Spend a lot of time at the gym. Once the season starts, you get the long days and odd hours and time on the road. He's probably predisposed to just being a big fella.
  2. Is the 60 a procedural thing for flexibility or indicative of the injury? Edman is probably too busy dealing with Ian to get around to this.
  3. also many people in that demo want to be close to their parents as they age or for support when they have kids.
  4. Here's more bullshit.
  5. Didn’t Fergie do coke? Wonder if that enhanced his performance.
  6. They are there to learn reading and writing and arithmatic. Not to eat. You can't eat unless you pray and schools banned God.
  7. are the Castro boys the modern equivalent of the Infantiago duo? Will harold come back for a swan song in 2025 when the team is contending for a WS title?
  8. I remember wearing shorts to a few playoff games in 2011.... of course I also remember the 2006 ALCS being the coldest I have ever been at a game. I guess that's the midwest in Sept/Oct. It can be 70. It can be 40. Last week it was almost 90 here. The thing that hurt last night was the wind. Luckily in our seats we didn't feel it but going out to the concourse was tough. Used our remote start for the first time since spring.
  9. Surprised MI wasn't there already
  10. that's how I feel... I have this dark belief that this will come back to bite us. Of course even without it when the dems tried they'll just "both sides" it anyway and half the country will just say "They're all crooked" That's the thing that makes me the saddest about all of this. Our elections going forward are at risk of being comrpomised and we'll always have fraudulent people in there mucking it up. We need a 2 year cycle from 2023-2025 to reset things. Those 2 years could determine our republic's fate.
  11. We were at the game sitting in the "Dogs" section. It was cold. Last time I was cold at a game was probably opening day. These are the kinds of games I stay home in April and May but with the final week of the season I want to get my kicks in. I like the 6:40 start times. That extra half hour means a lot during the week.
  12. well my 21 year old son was pissed last weekend when they cut into the college football game he was watching.
  13. What’s “offensive” for lack of a better word isn’t people talking about it. It’s the idea it’s breaking news and deserves to be something you would interrupt another game, even for another sport.
  14. why is a franchise record worth cutting into not only other national MLB games but football games? Frankly it's not national news. Great for Yankee fans to celebrate, I'm happy for them, but if Spencer Torkelson is sitting on 57 HR next year with 12 games left will they be doing the same thing and why not?
  15. I have some laying around when I tried to squeeze every ounce out of my iphone 6. One year the Tigers gave us one since they went to digital tickets, I figured that was their way of getting around having to use our phones to get in?
  16. agree.
  17. combined with his high pitched voice.... not sure that will fully translate for MAGA. and I can definitely see a rift coming as the kids won't want their gravy train and grift interrupted. Money going to him is not money going to them.
  18. I didn't hear Harris refer to "our ballclub" in his press conference neither did I hear the words "happy" or "quality".
  19. Which keeps in line with my thinking Rogue One is the best film they've done since Empire.
  20. Tigers are 5-1 since Harris was signed.
  21. I watched the first episode and liked it. Having trouble keeping up with my fantasy shows, luckily I didn't get into GoT. And we started Dahmer last night too.
  22. if you were really ambitious you'd find the link for people in uniform in the debut game of the selected players in hte chain. Not managers or coaches. Saw a thing over the weekend that Dusty Baker was a participant in every 700 homer game. He was Aaaron's teammate, managed the Cubs against Bonds, and the other night.
  23. No. I don’t get wrapped up into all of that because you can’t pick out what the cause and effects were. The numbers are the numbers and they reflect competition against your peers. breaking franchise records hasn’t been national news so it shouldn’t be now.
  24. Wow. That’s sort of like when people would snatch up internet domains like “parts.com”. Imagine the points those people are racking up from crowdsourcing.
